#9553: Allow plugins to add info to the "new version" message

 This patch would allow plugins to insert content directly after the "There
 is a new version of (name) available" line in the plugin administration,
 via a new after_plugin_update_row action.

 A plugin could hook into this to insert pre-upgrade reminders or
 instructions, for example. (e.g. for those plugins that store custom files
 needing to be backed up.) I also would find this new action useful for a
 plugin I'm developing.

 I know it's possible to add another <tr></tr> row using the existing
 after_plugin_row action, but it would look cleaner to include all upgrade-
 related information in the same row.
